Twitter trolls Liverpool after their fans walk out and their team collapses

Turns out that when Liverpool do walk alone, they end up throwing away a two-goal lead.

We're pretty sure that most football fans will have agreed with the decision by many Liverpool fans to walk out of their game with Sunderland at Anfield.

After the Reds chiefs decided to hike ticket prices up to £77 and introduce a season ticket worth £1,029 - almost £54 per game - Liverpool fans planned a walkout to show everyone what they think of the price increase.

And for the fans who did the walkout in the 77th minute, they got to see their side score twice against Sunderland, with goals from Roberto Firmino and Adam Lallana.

With a reported 10,000 fans walking out and leaving their side 13 minutes to see out the rest of the game, we reckon most fans will have thought three points were coming their way.

The thing is, fate really was not on Liverpool's side and it appears that when the Reds players do walk alone, it doesn't go very well for them.

Why? Well, four minutes after the walkout, Adam Johnson pegged one back for the Black Cats, before Jermain Defoe rescued a point by scoring in the 89th minute.

As you can imagine, fans showed no mercy on Twitter and had a right good laugh at Liverpool's luck:
